800 GUESTS. 33 TEAM MEMBERS. 2 BUFFET LINES. ONE HUGE MILESTONE. 🙌🏽✨
Yesterday, Food Thyme completed our BIGGEST catering event to date — serving 800 guests for AECON at the Savannah River Site! 🏆🍽️
For an event of this magnitude, efficiency was everything. Our client requested two buffet lines on BOTH sides of the conference room, allowing us to keep hundreds of guests moving smoothly while still providing the quality, presentation, and hospitality that represents Food Thyme.
On the Menu 🍴
🥩 Braised Pot Roast
🐟 Tarragon Salmon Fillet
🍗 Grilled Herb Chicken
🧀 Smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese
🥦 Vegetable Medley
🍚 Steamed Rice
🧁 Assorted Cupcakes
🍓 Fresh Fruit
🍋 Lemonade
🧋 Sweet Tea
But the food was only one part of what made this event possible.
I had an incredible team of 33 employees helping bring this vision together, and I cannot thank them enough. From preparation and loading, to setup, serving, replenishing, cleaning, and breaking everything down — every position mattered. When you serve 800 people, there is no small role. Thank you to every member of the Food Thyme Team for showing up, working together, and helping us accomplish something we have never done at this scale before. ❤️👏🏽
And a very special THANK YOU to Christina Avina for coming in and helping me lead this team. Having someone beside me helping oversee the operation, keep everyone organized, and make sure everything continued flowing smoothly was truly appreciated. 🤞🏽💕
There was a time when catering 800 people sounded HUGE… and now we can officially say:
WE DID IT. 🙌🏽
Every event is teaching us. Every challenge is growing us. And every opportunity is preparing Food Thyme for the next level.
Thank you AECON for trusting Food Thyme with such an important event. Serving 800 guests was a milestone we will never forget. 🥂
Food Thyme is growing — and so is our capacity. 🚀🍽️
